Dead Meat is a top down shooter where you must survive for as long as possible against an ever oncoming flood of zombies. There are a few games already out that are similar to this and unfortunately Dead Meat brings nothing new. There is only one weapon, a fairly useless pistol, which although can be made a little more powerful with power ups it soon becomes not powerful enough to keep ahead of the zombies. Some changes to the game would improve this a lot. The game costs 80 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.

Fire is a fire screen saver for your 360. I cant tell you how good it is as the trial wont let you get past the title screen… I wonder why. The full version costs 80 :MSPoints: and more information here.

Hypnotizing is made by the same people as the above Fire. Again the trial wont let you past the menu so that’s the end of this review. If you want to waste your money the full version costs 80 :MSPoints: and there’s more information here.

Azubi’s Pool Of Bethesda is a puzzle game based on the biblical events by the Pool of Bethesda. The aim of the game is to uncover the hidden angels to obtain healing for your patients, you do this by placing patients on the grid square and either an empty space, an ordinary angel or an archangel will be revealed. I am not sure if there is anything else to it apart from choosing random squares but I think that is all it is. The game costs 240 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.

Johnny’s Skydiving Lessons is an action game where you jump out the airplane without a parachute in order to catch the falling parachute. It is a fun idea but not done well as it involves following an arrow for half a minute then hoping you are near the parachute to grab it with the A button in a split second. This seems to repeat level after level, with some tweaks and additions, maybe obstacles such as birds, this could be a nice game. The game costs 80 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.

Origin is an Arkanoid style breakout game that instead of the paddle being stuck at the bottom of the screen it can rotate 360 degrees around the play area. This adds an whole new dimension to the breakout genre and I have to admit it did catch me out a few times when I expected the ball to bounce on the wall or ceiling 🙂 In addition to the standard mode there is a interesting dual paddle mode which are controlled by both analogue sticks. The game costs 400 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.

Sol Survivor is a 3D Tower Defense game. It is unfortunate that Defense Grid (another Tower Defense game) was released a few weeks ago as they are both in competition with each other. Sol Survivor stands up very well and has some of the nicest 3D graphics found on an Indie Game that I have seen,  gameplay seems spot on for a Tower Defense game. I only try games for the eight minute trials and it was not long enough to get the full benefit of the game but I would recommend you at least try the trial. The game costs 800 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.

War: The Card Game Advanced is a two player card game against CPU or Human where you must turn over a card and press the button(s) a specified number of times before your opponent, each card has a different number and buttons to press. It is a good idea but by the end of the eight minutes my fingers and arm was aching from too much button pressing, arcade shooter fans with plenty of stamina will probably enjoy this more 🙂 The game costs 80 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.

Updated titles for either a price change or software updates are Math Aerobat and Little Racers.
